Looked tired today after a big week, Norwich then that high tempo performance against Derby so a good point for me and expected a few tired mind/bodies. |  | | |  |

That is grasping at straws I'm afraid. We were poor today and the players and staff have to take responsibility for that. Please don't play the tired card when we are in the position we are in. |  | | |

Slow long death to relegation. Some positives this week, but getting closer to the inevitable. | | | |

What a load of bollox. The OP made a very good point. We weren't poor and deserved the point - but to expect us to sustain the level of performance for the third game in six days is unrealistic. |  |

Fairly obvious they looked a bit leggy today in my view. I agree with the OP. |  |

Just saying what I saw today, tired players after a tough week. You can still be leggy if you're bottom of the league | | | |

Bottom of the league and desperate. We should be up for every game regardless. Stoke were p1ss poor today and there for the taking. I have already resigned myself to relegation, but want to go with a fight. I didn't see any fight today. Tiredness is a modern day thing that I don't buy into. They should be able to play 3 games in 6 days when our survival depends on them doing so. This is clutching at straws. We have played awful when we have had a 7 day break, so not good enough. | | | |

Perfectly valid point when we have a lot of young players/players who haven't had a lot of football playing three big games in a week. |  | | |

This is just b0llocks. |  |

Agree, also I thought Derby was a hard test straight after Nodge too, if that would have been Stoke Weds with that performance it probably would have been three points.. |  | | |

Scoring in injury time shows they were fighting all the way till the end. They didn't crumble after conceding such a poor goal so yes the quality wasn't as good today but again shown some great character. These young lads will lose sharpness after a tough week. | | | |

"with that performance"? Stoke were there to be taken and we failed. Not our worst performance, but expected more. If the players were tired (please) then the manager is at fault for not spotting it. I didn't think we looked leggy, just not good enough. | | | |

If someone is tired they're tired. |  |

Pecker’s general point is ludicrous, clearly tiredness is a thing, however Stoke had also played midweek and kept a largely unchanged lineup throughout |  |

I think one of our problems is that we dont have two good options for each position due to bad injuries and poor recruitment. Therefore we have to play players who have knocks or are coming back from injury. The team were flat yesterday which was a shame as Stoke were not good either. [Post edited 17 Feb 2019 9:37]

3 games in 7 days, actually.
Yet another nail in our coffin. We need wins & weren't good enough to beat a hopelessly out of form Stoke side. Very hard to see where wins are going to come. Wigan & Reading games really are the last chance saloon, although I felt we would be relegated after we lost at home to Bristol City despite the game having been there on a plate. |  |
